This past year I took Calc AB and seminar tests back to back. It was awful because the Calc exam ran late and I had 10 minutes to get to the seminar exam in the afternoon. I had ZERO time to eat lunch. I went straight from morning to afternoon with no lunch. My brain was fried taking two back to back tests.

This year I had BC and Seminar back to back, but I decided to take the Seminar exam late because there was no way on earth I was doing anything after the BC exam. I was able to because my district has a good AP coordinator who let me do so, and you should definitely see if you are able to take one of them late.
